d63d9f2b44 bech32: Add base256 conversion convenience funcs.
Since bech32 itself works with data encoded with 5 bits per byte (aka
base32) padded out to the nearest byte boundary, the existing functions
for Encode and Decode accept and return data encoded that way.

However, the most common way to use bech32 is to encode data that is
already encoded with 8 bits per byte (aka base256) without padding which
means it is up to the caller to use the ConvertBits function properly to
convert between the two encodings.

Consequently, this introduces two convenience functions for working
directly with base256-encoded data named EncodeFromBase256 and
DecodeToBase256 along with a full set of tests to ensure they work
expected.

36377a3c8c bech32: Ensure HRP is lowercase when encoding.
BIP173 specifically calls out that encoders must always output an all
lowercase bech32 string and that the lowercase form is used when
determining a character's value for calculating the checksum.

Currently, the implementation does not respect either of those
requirements.

This modifies the Encode function to convert the provided HRP to
lowercase to ensure the requirements are satisfied and adds tests
accordingly.

f281d151bb bech32: back port improvements from decred/dcrd@9b88dd0
This commit brings a host of improvements to the bech32 package. The
public interface of the package remains unchanged.

Summary of changes:
* Improved error handling using dedicated error types. Programmatically
  detect if the errors produced are the expected ones.
* Improve test coverage to test more corner cases. Added test vectors
  from Bitcoin Core.
* Add a benchmark for a full encode/decode cycle of a bech32 string.
* Add a new function DecodeNoLimit, for decoding large bech32 encoded
  strings. It does NOT validate against the BIP-173 maximum length
  allowed for bech32 strings.
* Automatically convert the HRP to lowercase in Encode function.
* Improve performance of encode/decode functions by using
  strings.Builder.
* Improve memory allocation in ConvertBits function.
* Updated documentation.

Closes #152 and #168.

38c25ef9cd bech32: Add bech32 encoding package.
The bech32 format is used to encode base32 data
in a string format specified in BIP 173. This is
among other things used to encode native segwit
addresses, also specified in the same BIP.

This commit adds the package bech32, which
contains the necessary utility methods to create
bech32 encoded strings from arbitrary data.
